It’s been a huge few months for me. I came out 🏳️‍🌈 at 46 and am living on my own for the first time in my life. I was in a very dark place until I accepted my truth. The second pic is of me scared yet excited for the future. Also sorry for the earnest post lol love y’all

Cover of IN THE RHODODENDRONS: A MEMOIR WITH APPEARANCES BY VIRGINIA WOOLF. Barnes & Noble logo is above and 25% Off With Code: PREORDER25 is below.
